Welcome to the British Association of the Var

It has a focus on members’ Welfare and is a source for confidential assistance in matters relating to health as well as more general issues concerning living in France.

Events such as lunches, guided tours, cultural visits and other activities are held throughout the year. These are open to all members and their guests. There are also more local groups,
